SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Harold Weaver, Senior Class president, plans the agenda for the next class meeting with the help of John Werley, vice-president. Judy Christman, our very capable secretary, records the minutes in her beautiful handwriting. Ronald Bittner, class treasurer, reports how much is in the treasury and how many expenses the class can expect to have. The class officers provided the leadership necessary to make our junior minstrel, class play, and junior prom a success. However, they could not have done as good a job without the patient guidance of our class advisors, Mr. Harold Taylor, Miss Barbara Kerchner, and Mr. Richard Blose. For the class trip on May 29, the Seniors decided to go to New York City to tour the United Nations Building, visit Chinatown, and view the play, Music Man. The last activity spon- sorecl by the class was the day-long trip to a Pocono summer resort. We want to express a hearty Thank you to all who have enabled us to say with pride: I'm a member of the graduating class of '59. 27
